Hello there!

My name's Michael and I'm originally from the San Francisco East Bay. I'm half-French, I've traveled 19 countries, I speak four languages, and I'm currently on my way to law school. In Portland, OR, for six years I was a General Contractor running my own construction business.

A little about my couchsurfing history - I've had the privilege of being a host and being hosted numerous times, and I have had nothing but great times. Most recently, I am going to travel through Europe, as I visit family and friends before going back to school.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Conocer la gente de las lugares que yo encontro en el camino!

Pra conocer tudo a gente do mundo!

To have fun, travel, explore, make awesome new friends, and see countries really from the people's perspectives.

Parce-que c'est le meilleur, non?
